Excerpt from Course of Lectures on the Constitutional Jurisprudence of the United States: Delivered Annually in Columbia College, New York
In again referring to the venerated name Of Chief Justice marshall, the author can but reiterate his former wish to be understood, on this and all other occasions, as adopting his individual Opinions, not less from deference to their Official authority, than from the conviction wrought by the luminous and profound rea sonings by which they are elucidated and supported. As this eminent and revered judge has himself declared it auspicious to the Constitution and to the country that the new government found such able advocates and interpreters as the authors of the federalist,'i so it may be regarded as one of the most signal advan tages attending its career, that its principles should have been developed and reduced to practice under a judicial administration so admirably qualified, in every respect, to expound them truly, and firmly to sustain them. Since this feeble tribute to his wisdom and virtues, this great judicial magistrate has been summoned to the bar Of a higher than any earthly tribunal, there to receive, we may be certain, that justice, tempered with mercy.

Excerpt from Course of Lectures on the Constitutional Jurisprudence of the United States: Delivered Annually in Columbia College, New York
"Dear Sir - I have received your letter of the 28th ultimo, enclosing the outlines of your work on the Constitutional Jurisprudence of the United States. The object of the work is certainly important and well chosen, and the plan marked out in the analysis gives full scope to the instructive execution which is anticipated. I am very sensible, sir, of the friendly respect which suggested my name for the distinguished use made of it, and am not less so of the too partial terms which arc applied to it. I shall receive, sir, with great thankfulness, the promised volume, with tho outlines of which I have been favoured; though such is the shattered state of my health, added to the eighty-three years of my age, that I fear I may be little able to bestow on it all the attention I might wish, and doubt not it will deserve.
"Dear Sir - I had the pleasure of receiving, at the commencement of the session of the Supreme Court, your "Outlines of the Constitutional Jurisprudence of the United States," for which I am greatly indebted to you.
"The pressure of official duty has been such as not to leave me leisure enough to give it that attentive perusal to which it has the fairest claim. That agreeable task must be deferred until my return to Virginia. I have, however, passed rapidly through it, and that rapid glance has satisfied me of the value of the work, and the correctness of its principles and statements. I wish very much that this and similar works could be introduced into all our seminaries for education.
